    I don't understand S&S strength standards

    @khohanguc 32 and 48 are generalized standards for people to set goals and work towards. Simple isn’t an indicator that it should be easily attained. Don’t take offense to it and let that put you off of your training. You can certainly use his program and set your own goals. Best of luck on...

    Tips on creating workout plan

    @blindautist This will definitely keep you athletic, but may get boring after a few weeks. I would highly recommend allotting some time to learn new kettlebell movements. Maybe work on the snatch or jerk for a few minutes each day as warm-up cool down. Or even practice them with very light...

    What does e/s means?

    @sarahharpmusic Definitely means “each side”. So “4- 5 x 5 e/s” means you will do four or five reps on one side, then repeat on the other side. Also, those programs are great. Best of luck with it!
